Affidavit confirms all my issues on 2G spectrum: Swamy

Swamy also called for immediate cancellation of licenses issued through undervalued sale of 2G spectrum."I am satisfied that the affidavit filed on behalf of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh confirms all my issues with facts. I am happy with the response," he told reporters here.

Now, he said, he was free to file a complaint before a session judge and ask a warrant be issued against Raja, who quit as Telecom Minister last week for his alleged role in the spectrum allocation.Swamy said the Prime Minister replied only to one of the five letters he sent on the 2G spectrum issue.

"This (sale of 2G spectrum) is the biggest scam of the world which cost to the government exchequer by Rs 1.76 lakh crore. So, all licenses must be cancelled immediately and a fresh auction must be held in this regard," he said.

Swamy said he has also written a letter to Singh urging him to put Raja under a high level security cover. "I think, a jail could be a secured place for Raja," he added.
He said he has also urged the Prime Minister to ask the US to share bank transfer records regarding the 2G spectrum deal which it maintains through its communication facility "as this data are vital for future prosecution and finding out the bribe money trail."
Describing Singh as "Bhishma", who mutely witnessed the sins carried out by Kauravas, Swamy said he was not directly involved in the scam and so he will not press for the Prime Minister's resignation.

Though the Prime Minister took two years to respond to his letters, Swamy said Singh was not responsible for the scam "because he is an economist and did not study law."
When asked as to what objection he has against Attorney General G E Vahanvati, Swamy said he would not mind if Vahanvati represents Prime Minister in the court.
"But if he appears for giving arguments in the 2G spectrum deal on behalf of the government, I would object because he is the man who advised Raja for not sending the matter to group of ministers and cabinet for necessary approval," he added.
He also claimed that a whopping Rs 60,000 cr were paid as bribe in the undervalued sale of 2G spectrum.

On former RSS Chief K S Sudarshan's remarks against Gandhi, Swamy said they were correct and challenged Gandhi to go to the court and file a defamation case against Sudarshan.
